Default New little Heli...

Hi guy's.
I just wanted to tell you about a nice little Heli I bought to fly in my backyard. It's the Helimax Axe CP. Seems to have good tail authority and a decent radio. Tracks good in mild wind also. So far I'm very satisfied with my purchase and would recomend it to anyone wanting a low budget electric helicopter.

sweet brian! I was looking into those... I love my blade CP, but it just seems like there is something missing with it. However, I have a cute little Blade CX on the way to my house as we speak...Ya know, I need something to keep me busy during the commercial breaks while watching the game
I Dont even have to get off the sofa!

Hi jared,
I just sent my Blade back to Horizon. Thye are suppose to send me a new one. I will say this, the Helimax Axe is a lot more helicopter than the blade. It has way more tail authority and it seems to fly more stable. But my blade is a lot of fun too.

Nice little heli! Once you get into foward flight, go nitro. Much more forgiving and stable.

I've been flying forward flight since I got it. It's just so much more stable than the balde cp. I flew it today in 8-10mph winds and had no problem. Like I said I'm very happy with the way it flies. Just not looking forward to finding parts.
